What was Ben Affleck doing during the crazy Bennifer days? Writing a script, that’s what. He began the script for Gone, Baby, Gone based on the novel by Dennis Lehane, and originally thought it might be a good fit for Jennifer Lopez.
Here’s a preview:
I can see Jen in this movie, can’t you? Instead of casting Jen (since it’s kinda awkward to cast your ex-girlfriend) he cast his brother in the title role and decided to direct. I think that was a smart choice for him.
There’s a very interesting article about Ben in the Chester Chronicle, and one of the things it mentions is that Ben is fluent in Spanish and French. Wonder if he ever talked in Spanish with Jen? Or French? Ooo la la.
Ben has made some horrible movie choices since the breakup of Bennifer, so hopefully this film will help bring him back the respect he craves.
